US Airways said Wednesday that all jobs supporting US Airways’ sales and customer-service calls originating in the United States will be brought to U.S. locations by October.
Work will be moved from offshore locations to reservations centers in Winston-Salem, N.C.; Reno, Nev.; and Phoenix. The move is part of the airline’s agreement with the Communications Workers of America and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, unions that represent US Airways’ customer-service employees and reservations agents.
US Airways said its Winston-Salem res center could be adding up to 200 jobs. The center currently employs more than 700 people.
The starting salary for the new Winston-Salem jobs is nearly $21,000 per year, plus medical and travel benefits.
